I just wanted to post this for any fellow members to have in their prayers. My best friend Ronnie,(Dragon) on here was taken to the hospital yesterday afternoon. As some of you may have read or know, dragon has emphysema, CPD (crontic pulmonary disease) and has been fighting on and off with phenomena. We went and met him and his wife Terry, Tee is what we all call her Sunday for a picnic lunch and were going to try and watch the race together but the air reception wasn't very good in the park. Anyway, had a good day but I could tell Ronnie wasn't feeling up to par. they got home and he took is necessary daily treatments but they weren't helping. he went to the Dr. yesterday morning and they admitted him yesterday afternoon. The hospital now has him on full oxygen and a heart monitor. They will be running tests today and I will further update as I hear any news. I know that the thoughts and prayers seemed to help while I was down and I'm for sure saying my prayers now for the both of them. Please if you have the faith to share, it would be most appreciated to carry them both in your thoughts and prayers. Thanks!

I know what he is going through. My Grandpa had the same thing which turned into Lung Cancer and then he later died. Hope he gets well soon. Our thoughts and prayers are going out to him and his family.

He's got my thoughts and prayers, too! My father's father died of that, although he was born with only 1 lung (and smoked). Get well soon Ronnie!

UPDATE: Dr. found some blockage in his heart, Good news! It's treatable with Medication, They are putting him on portable oxygen again. If everything goes good he may get out late today. The blockage seemds to be minimal but is still causing him some pains in his chest. I talk with him a little while this morning. He sounded pretty groggy but in good spirits. Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers, We all know that when it's our time it's our time. Just glad this one wasn't the one and that he'll be with us for a while to come!

 

[gordon24]
